“Mixed bag; very good food, but....”

First of all, this place seems to do a lot of carryout, and if that is all you want then you should raise my rating to very good. But my overall experience didn't get to that level.

Craving Mexican food and this did not hit the spot. Not sure if it's a Colorado thing but the mesquite seasoning on the beans seemed to be used on everything....not a big fan of that seasoning so wasn't happy overall.

We stopped in for lunch on a Friday afternoon. The town was very quiet, cars were being detoured during snow removal. The place doesn't look like much from the outside (or the inside for that matter)

I ordered the Burrito Supreme with chicken. It was delicious. The green chile was mild but delicious. It definitely had a home made taste. This is not a fast food, one taste fits all, boring American franchise restaurant. The taste was authentic Mexican. The chicken was fresh. The service was fast and friendly.

Waitress was very inattentive even when restaurant wasn't that busy. She provided bill with total scribbled on the back of someone else bill. She overcharged us by over $14 based on menu prices.
Food was average quality.
